The manager is an “Karen” and utterly incompetent. Staff were rude, especially the one wearing an ankle monitor. I will never eat at Panera again.

We ordered takeout from this location (22nd Ave at 66th St N) in St. Petersburg. The food was excellent - the baguette side in particular was perfectly baked. The service left a little to be desired: I know on this age of online ordering we've become spoiled, but this was my experience. I arrived at 6:34 pm. I had received an email saying the order would be ready at 6:36. At 6:37 I got an app notification saying the order was ready. At 6:38 I checked with staff at the store who said it would be coming out soon. At 6:45 the same staffer said "you don't have your order yet?". It came up at 6:48. Not sure why I got a notification the order was ready 11 minutes prior to it actually being fulfilled. Better to under-promise and over-deliver. But that's a minor objection in an otherwise good overall experience.

They get three stars simply because the portion of my order that I got was good. However, I was missing.
Part of my order when I called to tell the manager that I was missing a bagel but did get the cream cheese, the butter, the fork and the knife in the bag. I was calling to ask if I could run back up there to grab one since this was my breakfast.His response was, are you sure the bag wasn't tampered with? Because my associate remembers placing the bagel in the bag.I find that highly insulting implying that I might be lying about the missing bagel,which is crazy! Even if your associate stated that they remember placing the bagel in the bag, you don't verbalize that to the customer. It was tasteless and rude. This is the first and last time I will ever order from panera! Good job management!
